Chapter 69: Tengxian Frontier

7.69 Tengxian Frontier

From the early morning of March 19, the Seya Detachment of the 10th Division of the Japanese North China Front stationed in the Tengxian area began to be constantly attacked by Chinese troops in the 5th Theater. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the 5 theaters of war did not invest a lot of troops in these attacks, they moved very frequently, and the attack time was extremely irregular! actually stirred up the Seya detachment to the point where it couldn't live in peace.

During the day, the situation of the Seya detachment is slightly better, and when night falls, the initiative on the battlefield will completely fall into the hands of the Chinese army! A variety of night raid tactics were made impressive by the Chinese army in the 5 theater of operations!

Whenever the Japanese officers and men who were physically and mentally exhausted were just about to fall asleep, mortar shells or grenades would suddenly fall on the Japanese positions, waking them up "in time." After the devils opened their eyes and rushed to the combat position with their rifles, the night became so quiet again!

After holding out like this for two days, the soldiers of the Seya detachment all had noticeable eye bags on their faces.

The harassment tactics proposed by Huang Haoran were originally just to "encourage" Tang Enbo's 20 Corps to do the same, but he did not expect that it could actually force the Japanese army in Teng County to be embarrassed, and even gave people a feeling that the counterattack operations of the 5 Theater in the Teng County area were one after another.

Since the martyrdom of General Wang Mingzhang, the accusations of the Sichuan army generals against Tang Enbo and the monstrous public opinion of the people have put the Wuhan government and the highest authorities under a lot of pressure.

As a result, under the joint promotion of several forces, the newspapers in the rear began to frequently mention the "Tengxian counteroffensive", and the people who had not seen the Chinese army taking the initiative to attack for a long time were really diverted, and Wang Mingzhang's matter began to fade gradually. The Wuhan government was naturally overjoyed to see such an outstanding effect, so it sent many literati and celebrities to take turns to fight, and for a while, the "Tengxian counteroffensive" became a well-known thing for Wuhan citizens.

In the end, even the intelligence agencies of the Japanese army were misled, and Tokyo began to believe that the Chinese army in the 5th theater was going to carry out a "revenge operation" in Teng County!

Coincidentally, the news that Tang Enbo's 20th Army was assigned to the 5th Theater Combat Sequence was also betrayed by the "people with hearts" in the Wuhan Military Commission to the Japanese spies lurking in Wuhan. This is simply like arranging troops for the implementation of the "Tengxian Counteroffensive" in advance!

After combining various intelligences, the commander of the North China Front, Terauchi Shouichi, made an erroneous judgment, and Terauchi Shouichi believed that Commander Li wanted to drag Isoya Ryosuke's 10th Division in Teng County, and then mobilize the main force of the 5th Theater and the newly arrived elite 20th Army Corps of the Central Army to encircle Isoya Ryosuke.

With the example of Huang Haoran's battle in Nanjing, the Japanese soldiers no longer ignore the determination of the Chinese army to attack! What's more, the deputy commander of the 5th Theater is none other than Huang Haoran!

It is possible that the battle plan of the "Tengxian Great Counteroffensive" was made by this victorious general of China! Terauchi Shou Isaki's North China Front should still be careful.

In order to "crack" the "Tengxian Great Counteroffensive" operational plan formulated by Chief Li or Huang Haoran, Terauchi Shouichi ordered Lieutenant General Nishio Shouzo, commander of the 2nd Army of the North China Front, to urge Ryosuke Isoya's 10th Division to march quickly, combine the main force of the division with the Seya Detachment in Teng County, and then advance to occupy Taierzhuang to form a solid forward position to deter Xuzhou.

Seishiro Itagaki's 5th Division must break through Linyi as soon as possible, and then unite with Ryosuke Isoya's 10th Division to fight a decisive battle against the main force of the Chinese army in the Taierzhuang area! Seek fighters to annihilate the elite of the Central Army, the 25th Army and the 20th Corps of the Wuhan government.

In order to support Ryosuke Isoya and Seishiro Itagaki in this operation, Lieutenant General Nishio Toshizo ordered the 109th Division, which had already invested part of its forces to participate in the operation on the northern front of the Tsuura Road, to move south and reinforce the 5th and 10th Divisions on the front line. The 108th Division, stationed in Xingtai, also began to move towards Xuzhou as a reserve for the 2nd Army.

At the same time, Terauchi Shouichi also sent a telegram to the Tokyo base camp requesting that the Central China dispatch on the southern line of the Jinpu Road could launch an offensive at the same time to relieve the frontal pressure on the 2nd Army of the North China Front on the northern front.

Huang Haoran of Xuzhou didn't know at this moment that his battle to lure the enemy had caused big trouble for the Chinese army in the Taierzhuang area!

**************************************************

"Battalion commander, are we going to the old place tonight to shoot cold guns? During the day, the commander of the 3rd company said that he saw the devil sentry standing with a rifle in his binoculars and fell asleep! It seems that the effect of our continuous night attack is really good! ”

Just after 23 o'clock, Wang Jinquan, the commander of the 2nd company, couldn't wait to run to the battalion headquarters, and asked the 3rd battalion commander Mu Lianxi with a smile about his plan of action tonight, in order to ensure that Tang Enbo could be mobilized and control the level of engagement, Huang Haoran handed over the task of luring the enemy in advance to Wu Jianping's 121st Division, so Zheng Tao's 662nd Regiment received the task again.

Because Wu Jianping, commander of the 121st Division, saw that the intensity of this battle would be very low, it was a good opportunity for the troops to be tempered. Therefore, Wu Jianping deliberately took care of Zheng Tao in advance, and asked the 662 regiment to send a battalion leader, and then transferred a battalion from each of the 659 and 660 regiments to follow the battle.

The 661st Regiment, which had previously carried out the task of attacking Liangxiadian, was in the process of recuperating due to heavy casualties, so it did not participate in this raid.

Zheng Tao agreed to Wu Jianping's request, and he handed over this "insidious" errand to Mu Lianxi, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, Mu Lianxi is a native of Guangxi, and his combat style is very "lacking in morality", so it is very suitable for him to give him such an attack task!

At this moment, the battalion commander of Mulian Ximu was leaning against the corner of his battalion headquarters and taking a nap, and in order to facilitate the attack, the special task force of the 121st Division lived in the trenches of the 22nd Group Army of the Sichuan Army in front of Tengxian County.

The Sichuan Army treated the officers and men of the 121st Division very politely, firstly, because the 121st Division was a unit of the 25th Group Army and Huang Haoran's troops, and Sun Zhen, commander of the 22nd Group Army, naturally wanted to give Huang Haoran, the deputy commander, face. Second, because Song Junzuo of the 99th Army had just sent 8 truckloads of weapons and equipment to Sun Zhen for the 100th Army Wang Junzuo, and the Sichuan Army, which had always been short of guns and ammunition, had already run out of supplies in the encirclement of Tengxian County.

The Sichuan officers and soldiers of the 22nd Group Army could not see Shen Junzuo and Wang Junzuo, so they regarded the officers and men of the 121st Division as the objects of their repayment. Especially when the Sichuan officers and soldiers learned that the 121st Division was the 100th Army under Wang Shankui, Mu Lianxi's treatment immediately went up a notch!

Going out every day to harass and harass little Japan, eating the meals sent by the Sichuan army's cooks, Mu Lianxi really feels a little happy!

"What's the hurry! The 1st Battalion of the 660th Regiment went to make a call after dinner, and then the 2nd Battalion of the 659th Regiment went again! I guess the little devil is still in good spirits now! I'm holding back my strength to get revenge on us! Isn't it unpleasant for us to go now? Order the troops to continue to rest, and when we have enough spirits, we will go to the cold artillery again! By the way, you told the two battalion commanders of the 660th and 659th regiments that they must inform the friendly troops of the time of the attack before attacking! Don't harass the Sichuan Army brothers! ”

Mu Lianxi never opened his eyes, and giving orders with his eyes closed can be regarded as a unique skill of Mu Lianxi, he has a wide heart, and he can fall asleep anytime and anywhere, but he can wake up immediately when there is a sound.

"Yes! Battalion commander! I'll send two correspondents to convey your words to them in a moment! Since it's still early, why don't you let me lean on the battalion headquarters for a while? I'm really too lazy to toss back and forth, so that when I get an order, I can go back and execute it directly, right? ”

Wang Jinquan, the commander of the 2nd Company, couldn't help but feel a little bored when he heard the battalion commander Mu Lianxi say that it was not time to attack, and now it was a little troublesome to go back to the 2nd Company to Wang Jinquan, so he hoped that he could stay in Mu Lianxi's battalion headquarters.

"Shut up! Don't make a sound! If you kid fart, I'll drive you away right away! ”

Camp Chief Mu still replied with his eyes closed, and after saying these few words, he actually started to snore, but fortunately, his voice was not loud.

"Aren't you afraid of attracting the shelling of devils? This sound, and said that others ......"

Wang Jinquan, the commander of the 2nd company, muttered a few words, then walked out of the bunker where the battalion headquarters was located and gave a task to the messenger outside the door.

After watching the correspondent leave, Wang Jinquan turned around and prepared to go into the bunker to rest, when he saw several familiar Sichuan soldiers coming from the trench with a supper.

The three battalions dispatched by the 121st Division did not bring a single handyman, and they were all combat soldiers, so the problem of eating was solved by the Sichuan army, and the 121st Division was only responsible for providing ingredients.

"Hemp stalk! What to eat tonight? ”

"Company Commander Wang! There you are? Tonight is white flour steamed buns with fried pork slices! Your 121st Division's food can be hungry to death! ”

The answer was a fat chef, obviously with a bucket-like figure, but the name was called hemp pole, Wang Jinquan felt that the fat chef's parents must have made a big joke with the fat chef.

"I said old hemp! You tell me honestly, did you grow into what you are now after entering the Sichuan Army? ”

"Hammer! Just our Sichuan army's food? Can you grow meat? Tell me which letter to say! Food like your 121st Division must be eaten by at least a company commander in our Sichuan army! ”

Wang Jinquan has always asked the fat chef such a question these days, and the fat chef always answers with the same words, and this question and answer has become a kind of fun between them, and they feel itchy when they meet.

"Before you took refuge in Commander Huang, our Guizhou army was no better than your Sichuan army, you haven't seen the food of our 99th Division! That guy is the real one! Send one fruit a day! If you don't eat, you can't sleep! You can even maintain this level even when fighting! The little devil's eyes were red when he saw it! ”

Officers and soldiers from the 99th Division always like to talk about the glorious history of the 99th Division in front of friendly officers and soldiers, and Wang Jinquan is no exception! The devil killers that the common people like to hear the most have no such effect in front of friendly soldiers who are also soldiers, but what can most capture people's hearts and attract the envy of friendly troops are the small rules designated by Huang Haoran in the 99th Division.

What kind of wartime double military salary, the families of the officers and soldiers who died for the country receive pensions for life, and the 99th Division's super-standard food, as well as the hard requirement of one fruit a day, whenever the officers and soldiers from the 99th Division talk about this, they can always be exchanged for the envy of friendly officers and soldiers.

If you can hand out a circle of cigarettes while speaking, and then pretend to inadvertently throw the cigarette box with the words "special supply of the 25th Army" at the feet of friendly officers and soldiers, the effect is simply incurable!

Of course, things like the 99th Division that were forced to use radish and bitter gourd as fruit distribution will be filtered out by Wang Jinquan and them.

"One fruit a day! What a ...... that day Ay! If I hadn't spent too much time in the Sichuan Army, I would have really wanted to go to the 25th Army!"

The fat chef's words made Wang Jinquan achieve his goal, and some of the Sichuan army cooks standing behind the fat chef were new faces, and the eyes of these Sichuan soldiers who heard Wang Jinquan say these words for the first time were a little straight!

"Sir! Are you telling the truth? ”

"What are you lying about? Have money to take? ”

Wang Jinquan's rhetorical question made the little cooks who asked the question blush a little, and in the fat cook's scolding of "I have never seen the world", the cooks brought the supper of the 3rd battalion headquarters into the bunker.

Walking in the back are two Sichuan soldiers with rifles on their backs, they are obviously sent to be responsible for the safety of the cooking soldiers, although the 3rd Battalion is in the second line, but it is not very far from the front line of the Japanese army in Teng County, sometimes the devils will also send reconnaissance troops to carry out counter-retaliation.

Last night, a sentry died on the position on the right, and the neat cut in the throat showed that the other party was using a very sharp dagger, and then look at the bayonets and short knives used by the Sichuan army that had been opened, it seemed that they could not cut such a wound again!

Wang Jinquan, the company commander of Wang, suddenly noticed that the rifles carried by the two Sichuan soldiers looked very new, which was an accident in Wang Jinquan's opinion.

"You've got a new gun? Can I take a look? ”

In the face of such a polite Wang Jinquan, the Sichuan soldiers seemed very cooperative, and one of them took off the rifle from his back and handed it to Wang Jinquan.

M1888? The model is indeed an old model, but the condition of this gun is quite new, open the bolt to see the chamber, at least eighty percent of the new guys, and the maintenance is very good, compared to the Sichuan earthen rifle and singles used by the Sichuan soldiers I saw before, it is really a lot better!

"Not bad! It's a good gun! It's hard for you generals and officers in charge of logistics, these days, there is a shortage of weapons everywhere, and you can still get new guns! ”

Wang Jinquan handed the M1888 back to the Sichuan soldiers after the inspection, he was a little strange, why didn't the 22nd Group Army issue the Japanese-style equipment they had just gotten, but issued these old sleeves to the front-line combat troops, although the condition is good, but after all, it is a backward model, and the round-headed bullet does not look energetic!

"Sir, you're welcome, our Sichuan officers and soldiers know that your Wang Junzuo has sent us weapons, can you not know? These guns had just been fired in the afternoon, and there were a lot of machine guns! Bullets are enough! The brethren were overjoyed! ”

The Sichuan soldier took the gun and put it on his back again, and then said something that made Wang Jinquan dumbfounded, saying that the Sichuan soldier also reached out and pressed the bullet belt on his chest, this time the cloth bullet belt was no longer faint and swaying in the wind, but full of two hundred rounds!

These vintage Hanyang rifles were given to the 100th Army by the 22nd Army? And what about those Type 38 rifles? Or since when did the Japanese also start to equip Hanyang-made?

"Is there a Type 38 rifle? And what model are those machine guns? Are they all Japanese? ”

Wang Jinquan did not give up, he thought that it was possible that the 99th Army had sent the old equipment they had replaced to the 22nd Group Army, and Commander Shen had pulled more than a dozen truckloads of weapons from the 100th Army, and it was also possible that the old goods replaced by the troops had been favored.

"Nope! They are all Hanyang-style rifles, some of which are still relatively old, but there are a lot of Japanese-style light and heavy machine guns, especially the Type 92 heavy machine guns, and I have seen a lot! But there are also some models I don't know, sir, in fact, the things that your 25th Army can't look at are treasures in the hands of our Sichuan Army. ”

The Sichuan soldiers said very clearly, and Wang Jinquan and Wang Company Commander also understood, it must be the 99th Army that changed the weapons and equipment for the Sichuan Army, and all the Type 38 rifles were left in the 99th Army, while the heavy machine guns and crooked handles of the 99th Army only took a part, especially the Type 92, which took the least. Not to mention, in addition to the dominance of a small number of antique machine guns, the two light and heavy machine guns used by the Japanese are really not very good!

Commander Shen didn't swallow the supplies for the Sichuan army, he just dropped the bag!

Such behavior! What a ...... Captain Shen's style!

Thinking of this, Wang Jinquan and Company Commander Wang smiled, who up and down the 25th Group Army didn't know that Commander Shen was the master who would not let go of the benefits? This time, the 99th Army was able to hand over the same amount of materials to the Sichuan Army, which shows that Commander Shen still regards the Sichuan Army as a friendly army.

If you change those troops who are soft-footed in front of the devils, Commander Shen will not even hand over the particle bullets!

The 99th Army changed the weapons and equipment of the Sichuan Army without authorization, and the group army headquarters should have known about it, since even the group army headquarters did not speak, Wang Jinquan, the small company commander, still pretended not to know......

"It works well! Fight a few more devils! Don't let down our Commander Wang and Commander Shen! ”

Company Commander Wang Jinquan patted the shoulders of the two Sichuan soldiers, and then walked into the battalion headquarters.

3 Battalion Commander Mu Lianxi has finished his bedtime, and the officers and soldiers in the entire battalion headquarters are holding the supper sent by the fat chef and eating it in a big gulp!

"It's delicious! It's delicious! If it's not delicious, it's a shame to have these ingredients! ”

As a chef, I naturally hope that the food I cook will be welcomed by others, and seeing the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Battalion eating so energetically, the fat chef's eyebrows flutter with joy!

"Wang Jinquan! Company Commander Wang! Hurry up and eat, I've decided to go out and eat when I'm full! ”

Of course, Mu Lianxi's "elimination" can't be true, because he can't eat it, after Wang Jinquan saw the expression of the battalion commander Mu Lianxi, he immediately understood that the "elimination" Mu Lianxi said was a night raid!

When you're full, go out and fight the cold run of the little devils! Wang Jinquan likes this kind of "elimination" activity very much!

"Gotta order! Battalion commander! I'll go back to deliver the order after I'm done! ”

Wang Jinquan responded very crisply, walked up to the fat cook, took out three steamed buns from the big wooden box he was holding, and then approached several correspondents of the battalion commander Mu Lianxi, and grabbed fried meat slices with his hands and sandwiched them in the steamed buns to eat.

"It's a foodie!"

Mu Lianxi scolded with a smile, and then continued to bow his head to eat. As soon as you go out, you have to toss until dawn, but you have to eat!

The 20th Army Corps, a shrunken turtle, saw that the 121st Division had taken so much advantage, how could it still hold on?
